Can a car be a better investment than gold? It seems that the answer lies with the owner of the all-new 2026 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, who decided to offer his monster for sale after only covering a distance of 79 kilometers (49 miles) in it, making a quick profit that proves the extent of the crazy demand for the most powerful Corvette in history.
Know the financial gain from selling a used, almost new 2026 Corvette ZR1
Specifications: A full option car with the utmost brutality
The car is not just a regular version, but rather an American sports car equipped with the 3LZ package loaded with additions alone worth 48,000 US dollars (180,000 Saudi riyals). Here are the details of this masterpiece:
- Colour: Red Mist Metallic with black racing stripes “Carbon Flash”.
- ZTK track package, which includes a stiffer suspension and a giant rear wing.
- Carbon fiber package: front fenders, sides, and rear air diffuser, in addition to rims made entirely of carbon fiber measuring 20 inches in the front and 21 inches in the rear.
- Interior: Adrenaline Red nappa leather sports seats with a 14-speaker Bose audio system.
Number language: 1,064 horsepower of raw power!
What makes this new 2026 Corvette ZR1 a “hard coin” is its beating heart; LT7 5.5L V8 Twin-Turbocharged Engine:
- Power: 1,064 hp.
- Torque: 1,123 Nm.
- Acceleration: from 0 to 96 km/h in just 2.3 seconds!
- Maximum speed: up to 375 km/h.
The Deal: Is the buyer lucky or deceived?
The car was purchased new for US$241,373 (905,148.75 Saudi riyals), and was sold after driving a distance of no more than 79 km for US$266,000 (997,500 Saudi riyals), an increase of US$25,000 (93,750 Saudi riyals) above the dealership price.
Although paying an additional amount above the factory price seems crazy, our team at Arab GT believes that the buyer has obtained a “catch.” Because obtaining a copy of these specifications of the new 2026 Corvette ZR1 from the dealership currently requires a very long waiting list, and many distributors ask for a more expensive price that far exceeds this amount!

Analysis in Arabic:
The Corvette C8 ZR1 is no longer just an American sports car, but rather competes with European hypercars in performance and market value. This deal reflects the great confidence in GM’s new engineering, and confirms that the ZR1 is the new “queen” of American cars on the roads in 2026.
Interaction question for our dear audience:
If you had $266,000 (about one million Saudi riyals), would you put it in a Corvette ZR1 with more than 1,000 horsepower, or would you go buy an Italian car like a used Ferrari or Lamborghini? Share your opinions with us through a dialogue on Arabic language application!
